Hi Foamers,

a short question:

given a volScalarField a with BC's:
Quote:
leftSide
{
type inletOutlet;
inletValue uniform 1130;
value uniform 0;
}
rightSide
{
type zeroGradient;
}
if interpolated on cell faces
Code:
surfaceScalarField af (fvc::interpolate(a));
the boundaries look like
Quote:
leftSide
{
type calculated;
value uniform 0;
}
rightSide
{
type calculated;
value uniform 500;
}
The right one is interpolated properly, but the left one is zero, even though neither the cell values nor the inlet value are zeros.

Can anyone please tell me why?
